How Can I?
You don’t know how I’m feeling,
I have yet to vocalize
Desire deep inside me.
Can you see it in my eyes?
I tremble when I’m near you
Heat travels up my thighs
And I want you with an urgency
That I just can’t describe.
Dare I reach out to touch you?
Do you think you’d realize
How much I want and need
you?
Can you see it in my eyes?
I long to say, “I love you,”
But am scared of your reply.
Terrified like a child
I’ve become paralyzed.
The camouflaged emotions
Lead to pain and silent cries.
And yet I just can’t tell you.
Don’t you see it in my eyes?
Confessing through this poem
My dilemma summarized.
The feelings quiet crazy
But will lead to my demise.
